Introductions Part 1:

AN: Thank you to everyone who sent in an OC! I didn't expect to get so many. I was at around twenty-five submissions when I chose the final fifteen. I did eventually choose who would be accepted though. I sent a PM to everyone who made it, so if you have not received a PM yet than I'm sorry but I couldn't include you character. Please don't hurt me. ): I loved every single submission but I couldn't accept everyone. The full list of accepted OCs will be posted on the last introduction chapter (Should be around 3-4 more). Also I have decided that since age never really had anything to do with the Games, I would just make every character 16 years old. It's just easier that way. Sorry if that affects your character. Here's the story now.

Are these really my fellow classmates?

I take a look through the entrance hall and see what looks like fifteen other students gathered around. Everyone seems like interesting people. What really catches my attention is the room itself though. It looks nothing like it did when I first arrived! It's grown an aura of creepiness and the front door has been sealed with what looks like a giant vault door. I don't remember entering through a door like that. Maybe I entered through a different entrance. Even worse is that there are two mounted machine guns pointed right into the room. Was this here when I first arrived? I blacked out pretty quickly so it's possible but I don't think I would have overlooked something like that. Oh well, i'm sure they aren't loaded and are just there to scare away any burglars. There's no way they have ever been used right? I leave that mystery to my head and look around the room. Other than that, there isn't that much other stuff in here minus a few billboards and a small filing cabinet.

Luckily for me, it seems everyone is distracted by either the interior of the room or themselves. They seem to be talking to one another. I take an opportunity to slip in amongst them to avoid the embarrassment of being the last to arrive. Even though i'm also an Ultimate student, I can't help but feel nervous around all these talented people. Looking at them all has already given me goosebumps. What if my talent doesn't impress anyone? Loathe as I am to say it, I need to introduce myself to everyone if we're going to be classmates. Can't be impolite at a school like this. I look around for anyone who doesn't look too busy. Out of the corner of my eye, I spot a female student with her back to the wall. She seems to be distancing herself from the rest of the group, just watching everyone. I figured she was probably a good place to start.

Sucking up my nerves, I walked over to her as professionally as I could. She looks pretty intimidating right off the bat. Her short white hair and beauty mark on her cheek combined with her red lipstick and her sunglasses made her look like she knew what she was doing. Her clothes also look extremely intimidating. She has on a black business jacket with a white shirt and black tie. Her pants, leather gloves, and shoes were also black. Her appearance screams spy to me. I get to her and introduce myself.

"Hey, my name is Ryuki Nokura. I'm the SHSL Artist. Nice to meet you."

Lowering her sunglasses, her green eyes meet mine. She puts her sunglasses back on and returns my introduction.

"Hello Mister Nokura. My name is Sakurako Ohwatani. I am the SHSL Information Broker."

Sakurako Ohwatani

SHSL Information Broker

Height: 5' 5"

Weight: 105 lbs

Information what? She looks at me with a sigh. "I can see the confusion on your face Mr. Nokura." Am I really this obvious. "An information broker is someone who gets information on someone to sell out to someone else." That explains the clothes but wouldn't being dressed like that be obvious? I look back at her, now knowing her talent to get a bit more associated with her.

"So you're kind of like a spy of some sort?" I don't know if this is a stupid question or one that could offend her but I had nothing else to say. What questions do you ask a person like this?

"Sort of, but were more professional with our work." Luckily I didn't push any buttons yet. I'll ask the obvious question now that I'm fairly acquainted with her.

"So what are you doing here by yourself? Don't you want to go introduce yourself to everyone?" Given her talent, I think I know the answer to this question. Sure enough, she gives me the answer I saw coming.

"I'm watching all of them." Her voice doesn't really seem to change tones. Its almost like I'm talking to a recorded message. "I'm learning as much as I can from them introducing themselves." I guess this must be normal to her.

"Are you learning anything?" I ask almost half expecting her to tell me everything about everyone.

"Only the simple things like names and talents. Information like that can be very important to someone else." Yeah, someone like me who is still shaking at the thought of having to introduce myself. Maybe I should buy all their names off of her. I shake the idea out of my head pretty quickly as she Sakurako starts to speak again.

"Knowledge is power Mr. Nokura. Do you see her over there?" She gestures her head towards another girl in the crowd. I look in the general direction and see a smaller girl who looks like she came straight out of a storybook. She had large blue eyes and pale skin combined with her glossy blond hair that reaches just above her shoulders. Her hair also seems to have a black and pink butterfly hairpiece on either side. Her choice of clothing was also very majestic. She is adorned in a light pink dress with a bowtie and layers of lace and frills. She might as well have had doves flying around her and a ray of light surrounding her. I couldn't do much other than stare.

"Mr. Nokura, try not to look straight at her." says Sakurako with a sense of professionalism. I try to obey her advice but realize that the other girl had already taken notice of the attention we had been giving her. She looks into my eyes and smirks. She makes her way towards me and Sakurako.

"Looks like she noticed us. Sorry Mr. Nokura, but it looks like I will have to take my leave here. Nice meeting you."

She heads off in another direction while the other girl arrives at my feet. I can see her more clearly from up close. She has white stockings with pink mary janes that also had bows on them. She also seems to be wearing white gloves that stop at her elbows. She points at my face, her finger no more than two inches away from my forehead.

"You!" Is all she says while maintaining the smirk on her face.

"Huh? Me?" Is all I could think to say now pointing at my face as well.

"Tell me your name commoner!" Wait? What? I let that comment go and do as she says. Not because I'm listening to her but because we are still classmates.

"I'm Ryuki Nokura, the SHSL artist. What's yours?"

"My name is Michiko Shirakawa! I'm the SHSL Fairy Tale Princess! Remember that well loyal subject!"

Michiko Shirakawa

SHSL Fairy Tale Princess

Height: 4' 9"

Weight: 82 lbs

Fairy tale princess? How can you get in with a talent like that? Is Hope's Peak just choosing random people to attend? No, there has to be a reason for her being here. Maybe I'll figure it out with a bit of conversation. Also did she just call me a subject? I try not to let it get to me and proceed with the introduction.

"Fairy Tale Princess? That's a bit unique don't you think?" I ask politely. I don't want to insult her in anyway.

"Of course not! I am the descendant of a royal English king and queen. It's only natural that I was invited to attend here!" I guess that does make her a princess but would you ever need an education at that level of royalty? Don't you always get what you want, when you want it? I must be over thinking this as it seems that Michiko is trying to ask me something.

" So Ryuki, you look like a relatively decent guy for someone of your social class." I'll let that one slide as well. "What do you say you become my loyal servant!" Who does she think I am exactly?!

"Oh, uh...I'll pass on that offer but thanks for considering me."

"Oh cmoooon Ryuki. Most people would be delighted to even be considered to serve wittle ol' me." What kind of environment was she raised in? Definitely not a normal one. I try to reject the offer, but she seems persistent. Luckily our conversation was broken up by another student, this time a male. He seems to be dressed very formally, wearing a dark blue business suit and a white dress shirt underneath, black dress pants and black dress shoes. His hair is a white blond color and is styled in a quiff.

"Excuse me you two but there seems to be quite a scene over here and I just wanted to know if there is something amiss." He looks at me and I see his blue eyes.

"Oh no, there is nothing wrong here. Sorry for making you..." Is all I could say before Michiko takes over.

"Who are you, loyal subject?" That makes the man raise an eyebrow but he as well, let's it go and proceeds to introduce himself to both of us.

" My name is Masashi Hayabusa. I have been inducted into this school with the title of SHSL Fencer. It is my sincerest honor to meet both of you.

Masashi Hayabusa

SHSL Fencer

Height: 5' 9"

Weight: 156 lbs

Michiko looks at him and grows another smirk on her face. I don't known if I should be worried or relieved she found someone else.

"Fencer huh? How would you like to be my personal body guard!" She says without missing a beat. How many people does she need for her little army?

"As much as I would love to be the bodyguard of one as beautiful as yourself, I believe there is a better use of my time and a better person suited for that job." Looks like he doesn't want to be involved in her crazy group either however, Michiko seems to take notice of his claim of a better person.

"And who might that be my loyal subject!"

Masashi looks towards the crowd and gestures towards another male in the crowd.

"I believe he is the one who could meet your criteria." Michiko smiles and nods her head in agreement.

"He does look like someone who could be of use to me. Thank you my fellow ally!" After that, Michiko takes her leave to go and converse with her potential bodyguard while Masashi looks back at me.

"Quite the card isn't she?" I couldn't agree more. She doesn't seem like a bad person though. I should probably try to get to know Masashi some more as well. He looks at me before I could think of something to say.

"I'm sorry I don't believe I got your name." Oh yeah! Michiko got in the way before I could introduce myself.

"Oh I'm sorry, my name is Ryuki Nokura. I'm the SHSL Artist." Masashi smiles at my talent.

"Ah.. the beauty of art! I hope you will have the kindness to allow me to watch you while you work sometime." I'm actually surprised at his comment. Normally, people wouldn't care of my work until it was finished. I'm glad someone actually appreciates the work that goes into it.

"Sure! Maybe someday I could watch you while you fence as well. I've never really seen it in person." Masashi smiles back at me.

"Of course! Any opportunity to educate someone on the beauty of fencing is an opportunity I will take!" This is probably the most normal introduction I've had so far. Looks like I'll be able to get through all of them after all. Masashi looks at me with a face full of pride.

"Have you met all the other students Nokura? I suggest you do. There are plenty of different people here." I nod at him in agreement.

"Yeah, I'll go do that. I wave goodbye to Masashi and go towards the crowd, now filled with confidence. Before I could reach the main group, someone grabs me by my shoulders...

AN: There we go guys! Thank you for reading this chapter! Three of our fifteen students were introduced here. Future chapters will have four characters each. If your character was introduced here and you don't like how he/she was written or would like to change something, feel free to PM me. I'll make sure to fix it ASAP. Also sorry if the chapter seems short. Its only introductions and I don't want to reveal everything about every character. Hopefully chapters will be getting longer when the fun starts but honestly, I would rather have a short chapter with good content rather than a long chapter with filler content. Look forward to the rest of the characters! They are all veeeery interesting. Cheers!
